I'll repeat everyone else one more time...excellent series. Number 8 is by far my favorite. But Im a sucker for old structures like that.

Thanks, Brant ---- the jagged line of dirt in the iceberg is most likely due to a merger of two ice flows, coming together at a central moraine on the ice sheet. The rubble gets pressed between the ice sheets, creating these features. Incidentally, the blue ice on the right side is also likely due to water coming into a gap and then freezing. There's all sorts of 'cool' stuff going on in these bergs..!

Love the tones in this shot Jonathan, but the whoile series is just stunning, beautiful work.

Thanks Steve (and everyone else too!). The golden colour tones were due to using a Singh-Ray gold/blue polarizer for that shot. Cheating, perhaps? I use that filter a few times a year, just for kicks.

Beautiful Gallery, Jonathan!

Less stunning than Jonathan but nonetheless my current bests.

7D 17-55mm f/2.8 @ 55mm, 1/250, f/2.8, ISO 100 with 430 EX II bounced


7D 50mm f/1.4 @ 1/200, f/1.4, ISO 100 with 430 EX II bounced


It's a colleague/friend of mine who wanted a nice picture of him that he could used on his LinkedIn/Facebook/you-name-it accounts. Of course nothing was foreseen and the idea came as I happened to have my camera at a BBQ at work.

Comments & advice welcome

He should be happy with these Steph.

The light in the second is a little better managed than the first, you could crop that body out on the left as it is a little distracting. The first one is a nice relaxed portrait that could have benefitted from a little bit of light from a reflector or a tablecloth or towel just angled upwards to decrease those shadows around his eyes.

Nice work, keep them coming please.

Thanks, yes, I think I see what you mean. On the first one, the flash was completely bounced off the ceiling while for the second one I had the opportuny to use the wall on his left. I would have needed the little white card there is on the 580 but not on the 430.
